Metrics Updates in Sandbox
Apps in the Sonar sandbox now show nightly usage metrics, mirroring real-life activity. This improvement helps you:
- Experiment with advanced features in a zero-risk zone.
- Validate whether new rules or integrations truly address your needs.
- Fine-tune processes based on consistent feedback loops.
Safely experiment with onboarding, offboarding, and budgeting in a realistic sandbox that generates user activity automatically. With this environment, you can:
- Test changes without affecting real accounts.
- Preview how different teams might respond to new license rules or security policies.
- Hone your workflows before a full organization-wide rollout.
Centralize management of Microsoft 365 or Azure AD accounts within Sonar. By using this integration, you can:
- Streamline provisioning for large enterprises with multiple Microsoft domains.
- Keep user details updated with fewer manual steps.
- Maintain a consistent security posture across both Microsoft and SaaS ecosystems.
Grab critical datasets from Sonar—like usage reports or offboarding logs—in an instant CSV download. This feature allows you to:
- Share SaaS performance and compliance data with non-technical teams.
- Archive or review crucial snapshots during audits.
- Combine Sonar’s insights with other analytical tools.
Restrict which software appears in your internal Sonar app catalog to maintain a lean, secure offering. With this filter, you can:
- Prevent teams from requesting apps they don’t actually need.
- Tailor the catalog to each department’s specific toolkit.
- Simplify IT requests by removing confusion around unauthorized apps.
Bring Sonar to your Firefox users by deploying our new browser extension. This addition helps you:
- Extend shadow IT detection beyond Chrome, Safari, or Edge.
- Implement consistent monitoring policies across all employee browsers.
- Improve coverage for teams that rely heavily on Firefox.
Consolidate all your SaaS spending in Sonar by importing financial data from CSV files. With this release, you can:
- Maintain an updated view of monthly or annual costs, even for smaller purchases.
- Streamline contract renewals by pairing expense data with usage metrics.
- Save time and reduce errors when pulling multiple supplier invoices.

MFA & Security Settings Overhaul
Elevate your organization’s security with Sonar’s reworked MFA and admin settings. Now you can:
- Enforce TOTP or phone-based multi-factor authentication platform-wide.
- Restrict new signups to invitation-only for tighter control.
- Fine-tune your authentication flows from a single admin dashboard.
Simulate more realistic scenarios in Sonar’s sandbox with new contract structures and user “personas.” These updates let you:
- See how monthly or annual payments impact your budget in real time.
- Evaluate how various roles or skill levels might use different apps.
- Experiment with usage-based billing strategies without risking production data.
Drill down into SaaS expenses based on tags, specific apps, or individual users right within Sonar. This added flexibility helps you:
- Identify which teams or tools drive the highest spend.
- Pinpoint quick wins for cost reduction or license optimization.
- Align expense data with broader departmental budgets or goals.
